Australian fashion brand POLITIX has been elevating men’s style for over four decades so it’s safe to say the team there knows a thing or two about the shifting nature of masculinity. So does Aussie actor and brand ambassador Dacre Montgomery, who continues his partnership with the label for its new Autumn Winter campaign. Consisting of suede trucker jackets, merino wool roll necks, and other essential garments, the ‘Stand For More’ Collection leaves less desirable traditions in the dust without throwing the entire concept of manhood overboard.

Not only does the range challenge preconceived notions and dial up the quality, it also offers a modern take on tailoring that elevates men’s style as the brand has done so many times before.
POLITIX Head of Marketing Megan Voss commented, “POLITIX has explored a new narrative of masculinity—taking our time to listen to our community and together, forging a new understanding of what it means to be a modern man in Australia. With the new campaign, we wanted to proudly stand for that progression and positivity.”
